Something I Do When I'm Stressed

I know it's old school, but still I love this hobby. I started back in middle school when we were asked to complete one for our homeroom project. From then on I learned to love this hobby. It gives me peace of mind, relaxes me and of course I find it fun especially the back stitching part. I am addicted to the Korean patterns I got from a friend. Simple projects like this one I posted can be finished in 2 weeks. About the size of a bond paper (11.5 X 8.5 inches). Hit me up if you want a copy of this pattern.

No, it's never an old-school hobby. Quilting is to Americans as cross-stitching is to Filipinos. I guess it's something that we should be proud of. I've never learned it but would love to. It's one of my life frustration cuz I wasn't born with any needle-thread skill.

I also love cross-stitching! Back in high-school, I have 2 unfinished projects which my mom really gets mad of me then because she buys me materials and our dog ruined my work when it's almost 80% done

This is a very good thing to do in a spare time. When you're preoccupied in doing stitching, especially a very challenging one like a landscape, you'll be addicted to finish it. My late sister-in-law is very good in this hobby. She earns a lot of money for this.

I love cross stitching ,i have done a lot of it back home .all of my works and my sisters are framed and hanged in my parents house. i can't find a nice ,big crossed stitch project here in US but i am still looking to make me one for my house.
